►▼Q: I have a V6 4 Cylender 4x4 Toyota 4Runner with tow packsge. I want to tow a 5000# GVRW travel trailer, what do I need?- Lorie 3/5/2014 9:47:57 AM

A: Our hitch pro writes: "Your Toyota 4 Runner will require a transmission cooler, brake control unit, trailer wiring harness, a receiver hitch rated for the trailer GVWR, and the use of a weight distribution hitch and sway control are also recommended. Please visit your local U-Haul Hitch Super Center for a free tow inspection, a U-Haul hitch pro can determine the extent of your tow package and give a complete quote for the necessary parts."

►▼Q: I will be towing a 5x8 trailer from Uhaul with a 12' GL 450. I do have a hitch ready but don't know if I needed something else aside from the receiver and ball.- Kyle 3/24/2014 4:34:46 PM

►▼Q: I have a V6 1981 El Camino with no current hitch for towing, I want to confer with you to plan to get it all set it up for the safest towing I can get, and I am planning to buy a small used pop up tent trailer, like the little Palamino pop up tent trailers. The smaller two sizes are around 1450-2000 lb GW when empty, from what I have noted and I wonder if the 2000 could be too much on my older car engine and body to pull, as it is all stock, however, it is in great mechanical shape and I did add a rear sway bar to car a few years back, and it was great it really reduced the body roll feeling, and replaced the standard car rear shocks with spring over coil. It is a small engine 3.8L, but carbarator and never had much Horsepower from get go, with California smog and 231 CID engine. Mechanically in great shape. Body and frame are good. I am set to get a tow hitch and 4 and 7 pin wiring for now, the hitch suggested online is for a 1.25 receiver. Later once I get the trailer (one with brakes) , I plan to then add a regular transmission cooler, and the correct brake controller for the trailer unit. I also assume it would be safer to anticipate that once I get that little pop up, I should plan on getting a weight distribution hitch, and sway bar device, since my car is just under 4000K lbs empty, it has a smaller engine and rear drive.....I am not sure if that sets me up for more sway or not! So, please advise, am I missing anything else to make this as safe as possible not only to tow on the road and in the hills on corners, but also whats best for my older car? - Marianne 7/23/2014 4:55:15 PM

►▼Q: I have a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Turbo and I will be towing your 12'x6' trailer. I already had the hitch installed by UHaul. I'm wondering if I need to be using a sway control bar as well. Thanks for your help.- Adrian 9/27/2014 7:58:55 AM
